France is experiencing significant population growth. The state cannot afford the investments necessary for this growth. It therefore proposes to individuals to invest in the construction of housing to meet the increased demand for housing.
To benefit from the advantages of the PINEL law, here are the essential elements to know:
Maximum price: 5 500€/m2. This threshold is used in the calculation of the tax reduction. The law does not prohibit the purchase of a more expensive property. Beyond this threshold, only the part equal to 300 000€ will be considered in the tax calculation.
The tax reduction is proportional to the duration and limited to 300 000 euros of investment per tax household (whatever your mariage status)
There are resource conditions for the tenant:
Rents are capped
Possibility of renting to parents and children (conditions required -> the same as for a normal tenant, therefore subject to resource conditions and capped rent)
The rate of reduction varies with the duration of the commitment (minimum rental period):
12% for 6 years; i.e. maximum 36,000€ of tax rebate (300k*12/100)
18% for 9 years, i.e. a maximum of €54,000 in tax savings
21% for 12 years; i.e. maximum €63,000 tax rebate
In order to be eligible for the PINEL program, the property must comply with specific construction standards to ensure that it is a BBC (Bâtiment Basse Consommation) building and complies with RT 2012 energy performance standards.
Only 6% of cities are eligible. Indeed, the supply and demand of housing is unequal on the French territory. Victorine Immobilier offers properties all over France in order to adapt to the wishes of its customers and has access to more than 230 developers on the territory.
The accommodation must meet the following criteria:
It must be unfurnished
used as the tenant’s main residence
Rented within 12 months of its acquisition or the date of completion of work.
The income of the tenants must be capped.
The caps vary according to the location

A coefficient:
Coefficient The coefficient is always: 0,7+19/surface
The coefficient cannot be higher than 1.2
The formula: Living area x rent ceiling per useful m2 x coefficient
The caps are set according to the geographical area and the composition of the tax household.
The administration is clear on the subject “since January 1, 2021, the reduction concerns only housing located in a collective building. It no longer concerns individual and suburban housing”.
